Given two 3×3 matrices P=[pij],Q=[qij] are given
qij=2(i+j−1)pij,det(Q)=210.
To calculate det(adj(adjP))
We know det(adj(adjP))=(det(P))(n−1)2
where n is order of matrix which is 3
so, det(adj(adjP))=(det(P))4−(1)
Let P matrix
P=[[\begin{vmatrix} {p}_{11} \quad {p}_{12} \quad {p}_{13} \\ {p}_{21} \quad {p}_{22} \quad {p}_{23} \\ {p}_{31} \quad {p}_{32} \quad {p}_{33} \end{gathered}]]|
and Q=[[∣q11q12q13q21q22q23q31q32q33]]∣
use qij=2i+j−1pij to find Q matrix
